NORTHRIDGE, Calif. — HARMAN Professional Solutions, the global leader in audio, video, lighting and control technologies, today announced JBL Professional’s introduction of the JBL IRX ONE All-in-One Column PA. Featuring an advanced acoustic package, 3-channel mixer and Bluetooth 5.0 audio streaming; IRX ONE is an incredibly easy-to-use system that’s road-tested and can be carried with one hand.

Equipped with six 2″ high-frequency drivers, the array delivers exceptional clarity, a wide sweet spot, and seamless front-to-back coverage. Additionally, the 8″ woofer employs a bass-reflex design, ensuring accurate low-frequency response down to 40 Hz.

Designed to cater to a diverse range of users, IRX ONE includes a convenient 3-channel mixer with support for the most popular connection types as well as integrated iconic dbx automatic feedback suppression (AFS) and Soundcraft-powered audio ducking.

With IRX ONE, this system does just that. Just plug in your mic, instrument or Bluetooth-streamed audio source and let the music or the presentation do the talking right away without a complicated setup getting in your way.”
